Famous quotes containing the word girl:

    No girl who is going to marry need bother to win a college degree; she just naturally becomes a “Master of Arts” and a “Doctor of Philosophy” after catering to an ordinary man for a few years.
    Helen Rowland (1875–1950)

    A girl could only see
    That a flower had marred a man,
    But what she could not see
    Was that the flower might be
    Other than base and fetid:
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Science is science, but a girl must get her hair done.
    —Robert M. Fresco. Jack Arnold. Stephanie “Steve” Clayton (Mara Corday)
